Yorke will reportedly be in France, where one of his compositions it set to premiere at the Philharmonie de Paris. While the premiere isn't scheduled until more than a week after the induction ceremony, one could imagine that Yorke will be busy preparing. Why get all jet-lagged flying back and forth from Paris to Brooklyn for something you don't care about?

"...[W]e've always been very blasé about that stuff," Yorke recently told Variety. "So, we don't want to offend anyone. We just think that we just don't quite understand it. We've had it explained to us, so it's cool. But we don't really understand it as English people. I think our problem is essentially that every awards ceremony in the U.K. stinks. We grew up with the BRITs, which is like this sort of drunken car crash that you don't want to get involved with. So, yeah, we don't really know what to make of it."

One awards ceremony Yorke does seem to care about is the Academy Awards. His title song for the film Suspiria is expected to be nominated for best original song at this year's Oscars. He told Variety that he hopes it gets the nod.

"That would be great because it was a year and a half in my life, and I worked bloody hard on it," he said. "So, you know, sometimes it's nice to be recognized. Sometimes, if you understand what it means."
